46. Yes!!! You tell 'em, FH.
I can't stand that xenophobic crap!

Yes, English is the "official language" of the US,

HOWEVER, hundreds of languages are spoken by those
who inhabit this country of ours.

Would this guy chew my butt out for speaking Swedish
to my mom or brother in public?

I heard something interesting while watching the movie,
'Walk-Out' last summer.

In it, Edward J.Olmos states that CA had two official languages
at the onset of statehood, and the CA Constitution was written
in both English and Spanish.
How's about that?

'Walk Out' is a true story, an excellent film
and takes place when I was in HS, myself.

I highly recommend it to everyone.

Again, Hooray for you, FH!!

:applause: :yourock:
